I dedicate this version to our friend Alfredo...
I didn't know this Irish tune before hearing it by Alfredo (as usual a nice and well orchestrated version)

..and as I'm learning the whistle I tried this tune with a Tin whistle, in D

Carrickfergus yourself!

This is really lovely. I love the fragility of the whistle sound. What did you use for the strings accompaniment?

Very nicely played, JP and a great clear sounding recording. Beautiful when the strings enter at about 0.44. Also, you asked me what harmonica I use. I always use Lee Oscar harmonicas as I find them the best for playing blues.
